re-connection

yesterday was one of the most beautiful days I have ever experienced. I held the first re-connection meet up. when I started my jewellery brand, I always knew that I wanted to to be about connection, connection to ourselves, to each other and of course mother earth. For so many years I have felt this pull about bringing together women and empowering them, connecting on deeper levels and meeting like minded people. I never had the confidence to do it, imposter syndrome ate me up and I really didn’t ever think anyone would want to come and do it. but a few months ago I decided to create a facebook group, I added two of my friends and just started posting… and it grew and grew and there were so many spiritual earthy souls who started to join the group. I had women who told me my journal prompts had changed their life as they’d never done it before, people be inspired to do a manifesting session after not doing it for months due to someone else posting in the group. As the group grew and i formed connections with new people, someone suggested a meet up. While this scared me so much, I knew it was going to be a beautiful experience. 

the morning was started with a hike through the most beautiful woodland forest, my intention for this part of the morning was to get these souls out of their comfort zone a little bit, break down some barriers of awkwardness and get them connecting on a deeper level. I had some ‘empowering questions’ that I’ve had for years, like little dec cards, so I each got them to choose 5 at random and then partner up with someone they didn’t know and then they walked together and chatted. this was one of my favourite moments of the group. seeing these beautiful souls hike through the forest and hearing them speak openly, freely and connecting to people. It was such a empowering thing to experience, knowing that I have created a safe space for them to open their hearts and minds to each other, as we get older sometimes it can be so difficult to make new connections and go out of our comfort zone to create these communities and open up to new people. seeing them do exactly that was everything I imagined and more. 

then we found our spot and did the most beautiful grounding meditation that one of the beautiful souls wrote and led. I felt so connected to the earth and it made me feel so grounded which was just what I needed. I wanted to centre this meet up around grounding as it was new for all of us and sometimes meeting new people can cause us to feel really unrooted and ungrounded - but this meditation, visualising roots growing from my body deep into the earth was exactly what the group needed to feel calm and connected to ourselves, each other and the earth. 

after we spent time journaling (I gave everyone some journal prompts centred around grounding) then we spoke about the things we wrote. some of us opened our hearts fully and had deep meaningful conversations about the things we wrote and it was so beautiful. everyone was so deeply connected and sop deeply in touch with themselves, the earth and especially each other. hearing the sounds of nature and silence while everyone was journaling allowed us all be in the "awkward" silence and feel comfortable and at peace in it. 

we ended our meet up with the most beautiful sister circle, I asked everyone to get into a circle, touch grass with their bare feet if they were comfortable, and say one thing they were grateful for. this was so beautiful. a wave of gratitude for these beautiful women rushed over me and turned me to tears (which in turn turned most of us into tears) and then everyone shared their gratitude's and it was so heart warming to hear what people were grateful for. I think this part especially allowed us to connect to the earth (the touch of our feet on the ground) connect to eachother (hand holding) and ourselves (opening our hearts and sharing our own gratitude). 

this meet up was everything I wanted it to be and more. i am so grateful for the whole morning - it was perfect. the perfect group of women, perfect energy, high vibrations. everyone was so kind, loving and open. there were some people who were so anxious to begin with, that I could physically see their worries fade away and them grow into confidence and grow into themselves. people opened up their hearts, even when they thought they wouldn't. new beautiful friendships were made. I felt empowered in myself and I now trust myself even more to create even more beautiful meet ups for these women and grow this little community.

comments from our beautiful women that joined our first meet up:

"before the meet up I felt anxious, all over the place and my energy felt scattered. After I felt calm, grounded and uplifted. There was so much supportive, positive energy from everyone it left me feeling really good"

"I connected most with sharing personal stories and hearing other people's wisdom about the topics we were sharing. It was a really safe space to be open."

"re-connections energy was warm, welcoming, friendly and safe. It was a beautiful energy of women supporting women"

"it's a lovely group of women who are caring, kind and supportive, and who offer so much wisdom from their own life and experiences, whilst also sharing laughs and maybe a few tears"

"the thing i love most about this community is the positivity, support and encouragement from everyone. It's really uplifting."

we would love for you guys to become part of our beautiful community and come and meet some like minded beautiful souls.
